RE: RE: RE: Buyout? kha, I've been saying this for well over a year and was attacked by you and others on this very board. And I think that is exactly what is happening. I think you and I are being sold down the river by Mark Brennan and THAT is why the delay with this BNDES loan. All of the 'players' are dividing the spoils and we are getting shafted. Beware bankers - especially when Citi or Goldman Sachs is in the mix. Also, do not forget who controls our offtake - Glencore which is the largest shareholder of Xstrata. There has been mention they might buy Xstrata out. We are apt to be squashed by the elephants. There is no room or need for us.
